Specific route is not being invoked in Blazor Server controller

In my ASP.NET Core hosted Blazor web assembly, I have a controller as shown here in the server project:

[ApiController]
[Route("api/[controller]")]
public class BlogController : ControllerBase
{
    private readonly AppDbContext _context;

    public BlogController(AppDbContext context)
    {
        _context = context;
    }

    [HttpGet("GetPagedBlogs")]
    public async Task<ActionResult<List<Blog>>> GetPagedBlogs()
    {
        var blogs = _context.Blogs.OrderByDescending(x => x.Created).ToList();
        return Ok(blogs ;
    }
}

When I try to send a request to

https://mydomain/api/blog/GetPagedBlogs

it doesn't reach this action method. But if I replace [HttpGet("GetPagedBlogs")] with just [HttpGet] and send request to https://mydomain/api/blog, then it reaches the action method.

What am I missing?

I am using .NET 7 and here is my program.cs file

builder.Services.AddControllersWithViews();
builder.Services.AddRazorPages();
builder.Services.AddDbContext<AppDbContext>(x => x.UseSqlite(builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("DefaultConnection")));

var app = builder.Build();

// Configure the HTTP request pipeline.
if (app.Environment.IsDevelopment())
{
    app.UseWebAssemblyDebugging();
}
else
{
    app.UseExceptionHandler("/Error");
    app.UseHsts();
}

app.UseHttpsRedirection();

app.UseBlazorFrameworkFiles();
app.UseStaticFiles();

app.UseRouting();

app.MapRazorPages();
app.MapControllers();
app.MapFallbackToFile("index.html");

app.Run();

In order to enable the attribute-based routing in ASP.NET Core Web API, you need to replace:

builder.Services.AddControllersWithViews();

(this is for ASP.NET Core MVC - where you have controllers with views)

with

builder.Services.AddControllers();

to enable Web API controllers with attribute-based routing.
